(Received August 28, 11.55 a.m.) » LONDON, August 27. Mr A&quith, in moving an address to King Albert, of Belgium, said the Belgians had unflinchingly faced the horrors of irruption, spoliation, and* outrage and against incalculable odds had stubbornly arrested the onrush, in wave after wave, of gigantic overwhelming forces. The defence of Liege would remain aii inspiring chapter in history, lie added: "We are proud of their alliance." Mr Bonar Law paid a similar tribute.
